I Am Nafisatou Diallo. As an incest and rape survivor, I long for the day when WE (women AND men) will begin to PUBLICLY identify with rape victim/survivors, especially those women of color victim/survivors who have the ability and courage to come forward and risk being metaphorically RAPED again by the court of racist/sexist/misogynist public opinion, the media, let alone the defense team of the (alleged) rapist. I AM NAFISATOU DIALLO.
